Chemical Structure

2-Bromobutyric Acid CAS 80-58-0 chemical structure

Description

This reference standard is suitable for quantitative analysis on major chromatographic platforms including HPLC, GC, LC-MS/MS, and GC-MS, serving as an external calibration standard or a system suitability test reference material.

CATO supplies 2-Bromobutyric Acid (CAS 80-58-0), a certified reference material (molecular formula C4H7BrO2, MW 167.00 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.

Structurally, 2-Bromobutyric Acid (C4H7BrO2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, bromine substitution. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 1.0, corresponding to approximately 1 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 167.00 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. Halogen substitution (F/Cl/Br/I) produces a distinctive isotope pattern in mass spectrometry, a valuable aid for qualitative confirmation.

CATO manufactures 2-Bromobutyric Acid under ISO 17034:2016 accreditation with dual CNAS and ANAB accreditation. Each batch is characterized by orthogonal methods and supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring metrological traceability.
